My brain on pregnancy!

So for a couple of days now I have been telling Paris that we would make home made cookies! considering I don't think her and I have made "home made" ones EVER! Sad I know, we went to the store last night to get all the stuff. This morning we got ALL the ingredients out and put it ALL out on the table because I knew I would not make it thru STANDING. (I wonder how much I am teaching Paris to do things the LAZY way?!)
We get to mixing and I didn't prepare ahead of time and let the butter sit out, and it calls for it to be softened! Well with out microwave I found this a little difficult! My BRILLIANT thought was to put it into the toaster oven, well that wasn't smart at all! It melted the outside and the middle was still hard! But we made do then added the sugars, went to beat it and the beaters DIED! Okay not the easiest thing trying to get half hard butter to mix in with the sugar! (frustrating to say the least) when it was finally mixed Paris wanted to taste it! I told her it wouldn't be great it's just the butter and sugar but she did anyway and her is was she thought about it!

I was determined to be PATIENT (not a strong point right now) and let Paris do as much as she was able to do. She did really well, but when it came to the eggs, I told her I would do it, but she insisted that she could and really wanted to, so what the heck, the one to get an eggshell in their cookie wins!? It was funny watching her fist the egg, hit the edge of the table, stick ALL of her fingers into the cracks and just CRUSH the egg and let it all drip thru her fingers into the bowl!!!

SURPRISINGLY NO EGG SHELLS! She did all 4 eggs without a single shell making it into the bowl. Time now to add the dry with the wet ingredients! With NO mixer, I am way too fatigued all the time anyway (i can't even hold my fork thru all of dinner I have to set it down, um is that normal?) there had to be an easier way...

We used our hands!

It took a little while to say the least! But WE DID we are done! Oh wait, I then realized, I FORGOT the most important part THE CHOCOLATE CHIPS!!!! Totally didn't even get them at the store, so these cookies are literally OATMEAL COOKIES! We only actually baked one batch so we didn't feel like total failures and froze the rest of the batter for when I do get chocolate chips! I still liked em! It didn't quite go over as great as it did in my head, but Paris and I did have fun just hanging out baking, something that NEVER happens!
